Croquet is **quintessential garden party entertainment**. But setting up the course properly matters - randomly stuck hoops make for frustrating games. Correct spacing and positioning makes it actually fun.

Frequently Asked Questions about Croquet set setup in Newton Abbot
Is croquet setup really worth a callout?
On its own, probably not - it's quite straightforward. But if we're setting up other party games, garden equipment, or doing other work, happy to include it.
Can you set it up on any lawn?
Croquet works best on short, level grass. We can work with what you have, but a rough or sloping lawn makes for frustrating play.
Do you provide the equipment?
No - you'll need your own croquet set. We set it up correctly, explain the rules if needed, and make sure it's ready for your guests.
How long does a croquet course last?
The hoops can stay up for days if the weather's fine. We can show you how to take it down and store it properly for next time.
